Ingredients

  • 1 package SeaPak Popcorn Shrimp
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo Sauce (store-bought or click for recipe)
  • 1/4 cup light ranch dressing
  • 8 small corn tortillas grilled or fried if desired
  • 1 cup shredded red cabbage
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 cup shredded green leaf lettuce
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 1/2 cup light sour cream

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 450F.
  • Spread popcorn shrimp in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake according to package instructions, turning once during cooking.
  • As shrimp cooks, heat butter, buffalo sauce, and ranch in a medium sauce pan. Heat on medium heat until everything is melted together, stirring occasionally. Reduce to a simmer until shrimp has finished cooking.
  • When shrimp is done, turn heat off sauce and toss shrimp into the saucepan. Use a wooden spoon to fully coat all the shrimp in the sauce.
  • Assemble your tacos by laying approximately 7 shrimp on each corn tortilla and then top with a sprinkle of cabbage, cilantro, lettuce, onion, and blue cheese. Finish with a drizzle of sour cream.
  • Enjoy!
